About this book

Sylvie married Gerald eight years ago during the Depression, drawn to the privileged life he could offer. Though she wants to be a good wife and bear his children, she finds herself unable to give him her whole heart. When Nikos, a Greek handyman, enters her life, she experiences real passion and becomes pregnant with his child. Fearing Gerald will never accept a daughter with dark hair and black eyes, Sylvie seizes an opportunity during a hospital fire to switch her newborn with another infant. This single act sets off a chain of consequences that unfolds across decades and connects to a passionate love story in contemporary times. This ebook includes an illustrated biography of Eileen Goudge with rare photographs from the author's personal collection.
